An Egyptian Funeral.

funeral in Egypt is indeed strange
sight and the first one the visitor sees as
tonishes very much. At the head of the
procession march corporate body of the
blind and certain number of men, who
proceed at quick step, singing a most
jubilant air. while swinging themselves
from right to left. Behind them comes
the funeral car, or rather a sort of bier,
bearing a great red shawl in which the
body is deposited. At the extremity OF
the bier on perch, is placed the turban or
the tarbouche of the defunct Two men
carry this bier. They follow with such
high spirits the movement of the
head of the cortege that the corpse,
rocked in every direction, seems to Jump
under the shawl that shrouds it. The
women bring up the rear, some on esses,
some on foot. The first row is formed
of weepers, or rather screamers, who send
forth toward heaven at each step the shrill-
est notes. The weepers hold in their hand
a handkerchief, with which they are not
solicitous of wiping their eyes perfectly
dry, but which they pull by the two ends
behind their head with a gesture that
would be desperate if it were not droll. On
arrival at the cemetery they take the corpse
from the bier to cast it, such as it is into
the grave. The grand funerals, however,
take place with much more solemnity
An important parsonage is hardly dead in
Egypt before his friends and acquaintance
hurry TO the house; during one or two days
they eat and drink at the expense of the
dead, or rather his heirs, indulging in the
noisiest demonstrations. When the hour
of the interment arrives a scene of the
widest character is produced. The slaves
and women of the household throw them
selves on the corpse and feign a de-
termination to hinder it from passing the
threshold. This lugubrious tragedy is
played conscientio1sly; they snatch away
the coffin; they Delay each other with
blows, and the most violent and frightful
clamor is heard. At last the procession
leaves the house and repairs to the ceme-
terry, preceded by camels loaded with victu-
ais, which are distributed to the poor hur-
rying in crowds along the road All along
the road the mourners and friends of the
family fight for the honor of bearing the
bier for an instant, and thus it passes-or
rather bounds-from hand 20 hand amid
the most frightful disorder. The interment
ended, every one returns to the house of
the dead to recommence the festivities,
dancing and the mortuary demonstrations.

The Constantinople episode had nearly
passed from my mind in the exciting years
that had interviewed. As soon as our gang
plank was hauled ashore, lady and gentle
man came on board. | was standing on
the quarterback with some Custom-house
officers and passengers. The lady, whom l
Immediately recognized, came forward and
embraced me with much warmth, and the
gentleman followed suit. The pleasure at
tending this happy meeting was shared by
all who witnessed it. 1t is needless TO say
that the pair were the Swedish Captain and
the lady whom / assisted to escape from
Constantinople. That truth is indeed
stranger than fiction is here exemplified.
After leaving Constantinople their joy was
unspeakable upon discovering that they
had been lovers in their childhood. She
was the flaxen-haired girl for whom my
friend had pined so long. When they
parted as children her family went to Mos
COW, where they remained several years,
and where she had the adva~gge of an ex-
cellent education and became proficient
linguist. Her great beauty attracted uni
versal attention. She was courted by many,
but won by none. Her father received the
appointment of Consul al Odessa, but he
gave up this place and they migrated to
Alexandria, where he became grain ex-
porter. This frequently necessitated Jour
neys into the interior of Egypt, and his
beautiful daughter was his constant COM
panion. During one of these excursions
their caravan was assaulted by Arabs. The
men were slaughtered and robbed and the
women were disposed of among the chiefs.
She fell to the lot of one who sold her into
the harem whence she was rescued by US.
When the pair arrived at Falmouth, after
the rescue, they were married and sailed
for Antwerp, where some of her jewels
were disposed of to purchase the brig
which he commanded when they paid
their visit to me on board the Dreadnought.
They had sailed together around the world,
but this was their first voyage to New York
Colonel Graham, now Clerk of the Court
of Common Pleas, was Custom house Of
ficer in charge of my ship at that time and
he lives TO bear witness that he heard this
remarkable tale told in my cabin by the
Swedish Captain at that time. My friend,
the Captain, has since sold the vessel and
retired from sea life to business on shore
in one of our Eastern towns.-Forecdstle to
the Cabin, By Captain S. .Samuels.

Martin Van Buren.

Among the many stories told by Thur
low Weed about Martin Van Buren, was
one narrating an incident which occurred
on the deck of a Hudson river steamboat,
on the way from Albany to New York.
The merits of Mr.. Vun Buren, were being
discussed when the boat touched at Kin
dernook, and the Little Magician" as he
was called, came on board One of the
party had been dwelling upon his non-com
mitalism, and complaining that /" a plain
answer to plain question was never yet
elected from him."
" FL wager the champagne for the COM
pany," added he, that one of us shall go
down to the cabin and ask Mr.. Van Buren,
the simplest question which can be thought
of, and he will evade direct answer. Yes,
and I'll give him leave, too, to tell Mr.. Van
Buren, why be asks the question, and that
there is bet depending on his reply"
This seemed fair enough. One of the
party was deputed to go down and try the
experiment. He found Mr.. Van Buren,
whom he knew well, in the saloon, and
said to him:
Mr.. Van Buren,, some gentlemen ION
the upper deck have been accusing you Of
non committalism, aud have Just laid 8
wager that you would not give plain an.
swer to the simplest question, and they de
puted me to test the fact. Now, sir, allow
| me to ask you Where does the sun rise?"
Mr.. Van Buren's brow contracted; hi

| tional but T.

ator, we've lost the bet ben Perle

Brewing the Fragrant Berry.

i coffee enthusiast goes into print with
these instructions: To have good cup of
coffee the berry must be purchased in its
raw state. This can not be done at this
season of the year at the retail grocers,
Thus only those who have this facility at
hand may enjoy a really good cup of coffee.
The article purchased by the single pound
at the grocery store, and especially the
country grocery, where dry goods, boots,
shoes, and groceries, including tobacco, are
kept for sale in unison, has conglomerated
odor of smoke, kerosene and mackerel
combined from surroundings. This, how
ever, may be improved by heating pretty
hot in the oven, when some of the bad
odors will pass off. Procure either old Java
or Maricaibo whichever the taste directs,
take one pint or pound of it in the raw
state, wash and put it in baking pan

Some Advice to Wives.

Remember that you are married to a man
and not to a god be prepared for imper-
fections.
Anticipate the discovery by your hus-
band that you are g only woman" if you
were not he would not care about you.
Once in while let your husband have
the last word; it will crafty him and be
no particular loss to you.
Be reasonable; it is a great deal to ask
under some circumstances, but do try
reasonable women are rare-be rare.
Remember that servants are made of the
same material as you are; a little coarser
grained, perhaps, but the same in essen
tials.
Try and forget yourself; as to your hus-
band forget that you married him, and re-
member that he married you; he will
then probably do the reverse
Let him read the newspaper at break
fast it is unsociable, but, then, it is only a
trifie, after all, and be likes it.
Let him know more than you do once
in awhile; it keeps up his self-respect and
you will be none the worse for admitting
that you are not actually infallible.
Read something in the papers beside
fashion notes and society columns have
some knowledge of what is going on in
foreign countries.
Be a companion 70 your husband if he is
wise man; and if he is not try to make
him become your companion. Raise his
standard, do not let him lower yours.
Respect your husbands relations, es-

FREEZING MERCURY IN RED-HoT Cru
CIBLE.-We take from an exchange the fol-
lowing account of an experiment recently
performed at the University of Wooster,
by Prof w. u. Bennett: Carbon dioxide
was generated in a cylinder of Bessemer
steel under pressure of 5000 pounds to
the square inch. From thence it was al
lowed to escape into condenser in the
condition of solidified gas, resembling
snow flakes in appearance. The tempera-
ture of this so.idfied gas is 1859 Fab. be-
low zero. A small quantity of this gas
was then gathered and pressed into a
SO called SNOWFALL" ON one side of
which was small depression The ball
was placed in a red-hot crucible, upon
which the intense heat of Bunsen burner
was playing. A little mercury and ether
were dropped into the depression on the
"gas ball" and, Notwithstanding the in
tense heat, the mercury was Immediately
frozen. Professor Bennett then advanced
one step higher by setting the ether on fire,
but still was enabled to pick out the frozen
bulb OF mercury. An instance of this last
step in which mercury was frozen in a
flame, as well as over a red-hot crucible,
has never been recorded in science and
was perfectly original with Professor Ben
nett.
